Excellent. Are you going to put Space Invaders side art on it? That had some wicked graphics going on. A completely unexplained Gargantua who never appeared in-game
Yes, you can spot those gargantuas in the upper right control of the marquee bezel still. But no, I will not be putting any side art or front art on control panel art. I realize now that when I said it would be a Space Invaders replica, this was misleading. That's liberal double-speak for a lie! I didn't mean tubes, I mean pipes. I mean, I didn't mean replica, I meant that it would be the same dimensions.
I went out of my way to ensure that I didn't have to spend any time "finishing" or "decorating" this cabinet. To that end, it's made out of laminated particle board or "melanine". It costs twice as much as regular particle board, but now I'm done and it looks great, albeit black like the Model T. Plus it's scratch resistant!
I've been trying to find a place selling Space Invaders overlays. I could swear I was just on such a site a few days ago. The usual suspect is Phoenix Arcade, but they don't have it. It has to be out there somewhere.
The original US Midway control panel artwork was painted on metal, so good luck there, but here's a vinyl repro.
I don't know why you wouldn't just make an American flag control panel, you terrorist. |
